say something

Nerves

I speak in 30 minutes, meaning I will pass out in about 15 minutes and my sweat stains under my arms will appear in about 5 minutes. No doubt this will be podcasted and video will be on the web some time after my talk so don’t worry, you can all share in the laughter.

I am speaking with Shawn Gold from the mighty Weblogs, Inc and Stowe Boyd from the incomparable Corante. Weblogs, Inc…Corante…9rules…all on the same stage. Well at least we have a better design ;-).

  2. Hopefully you will or did, picture the audience in their underwear.

  3. I’m a useless public speaker, unless I’m sitting down in a group or running a demo on a computer. Don’t know why - I just am. Know your limits, I guess.

  5. Well it’s over and done with and from the feedback I guess I did alright. At the very least I told some stupid jokes that made the people laugh so it was fun.

    When’s the next conference?

  6. Glad it all turned out alright, and that you’re still alive. I wish I could’ve been there to hear you say cool words like “A-Yax” and such. :)

  7. Hey Paul, congrats! You did really well up there. I chatted with a girl sitting next to me and she was pretty impressed with you and what 9rules was doing.

  8. You did great, Paul. So what will you be presenting at SXSW?

  9. Well I had two goals:

    Impress the ladies
    Don’t trip walking up the stairs.

    So I’m glad to see I accomplished at least one of the two.

  10. Wow, thanks Molly. That means a lot coming from you. Actually I can see myself and the crew doing more than one panel at SXSW simply because of the range of talents we have (as a team, not individuals). A couple of weeks from now I will definitely ask the audience what they would like to hear.

    We are actually looking at a design conference in Chicago and trying to find whatever else is around. We are starting to turn into Conference junkies…actually it’s just fun to be able to hangout with the people you work with.

  12. Hey, if you get to a design conf in chicago, I might make the trip. Only 100 miles or so. :-)
